Welcome,

HypnoBabes,

And tonight we embark on a journey of emotional healing,

Self-discovery and deep relaxation,

Allowing you to release the burdens of the day and drift into a peaceful and refreshing sleep,

As I bring you my guided sleep meditation for emotional healing and rejuvenation.

And this narrative is set in a lush garden,

And I would like to give a heartfelt mention to my wonderful mum and dad.

The garden they created in Dorset during my childhood has been a continuous source of joy for me,

And it only grows more beautiful with each passing year.

It is from this special place that this meditation was inspired.

Just as nature heals and renews itself,

So too we can embrace our own cycles of growth,

Healing and transformation.

So for now,

I'd like you to make yourself very comfortable.

Make any adjustments and settle into your safe and relaxing space.

I want you to know that I am here for you.

I know you are a good person,

And you deserve to be pampered and cared for by me.

So that's exactly what we're going to do.

This guided meditation is designed to lead you into a deep and restorative sleep,

And it is my absolute honor to accompany you tonight on this journey of healing and self-discovery.

For you can release the stresses of the day,

And enjoy the peaceful embrace of the dark velvet of the night,

And when you're ready to drift into sleep,

You can do so in your own time,

And it doesn't matter if it takes a little or longer to unwind,

Because the process has begun,

And when the time is right,

You can let go of conscious listening,

As the flow of my words speaks gently to your subconscious mind,

As you make steps to move closer and closer to sleep.

And as we embark on this soothing bedtime ritual,

I invite you to set an intention for this sleep meditation,

Maybe you just want to let go of the day's burdens,

To find peace within yourself,

Or perhaps you're just giving yourself permission to rest ever so deeply.

You know in your heart what is right for you,

So I will be quiet for a moment whilst you think about this intention,

And as you keep moving gently towards the destination of healing sleep,

Keep your intention in mind,

And give yourself the gift of releasing and relaxing,

To help tune in with the parasympathetic nervous system,

Take a long slow breath in through your nose,

And as you do so,

Feel your chest and belly rise,

Pause for a moment at the top,

And then exhale,

And as you do so,

Let all the tension melt away through your breath,

Do this a few more times,

And you will notice as each cycle passes,

It takes you deeper and deeper into relaxation,

You can let go,

Let go,

Let go,

Let go,

And now bring your breath back to its normal natural rhythm,

And move your attention to the top of your head,

I want you to imagine a soft and energetic wave of relaxation,

Gently flowing over you,

And as this wave moves over your body,

It releases,

As it moves downwards from the top of your head,

Moving over your forehead,

Feel the muscles soften,

As it moves to your eyes,

And all the muscles around your eyes,

Down to your cheeks,

If your teeth are clenched,

Just allow some space,

Relax your tongue,

As this wave of relaxation moves into your shoulders now,

Allow your shoulders to sink down,

Imagine all those muscles smoothing out,

And letting go completely,

Feel that energy flow down into your arms,

All the way down to your fingertips,

Soothing,

Calm,

As it moves,

As the wave of relaxation moves down your chest,

Into your abdomen,

Releasing any tightness,

Down into your pelvis,

And your hips,

Smoothing those large muscles in the thighs,

Relieving tiredness in the knees,

Down into the calves,

Until every part of you is just feeling softer,

Tension melting away,

So that you can feel completely at ease,

Continuing to breathe,

Sinking deeper and deeper into the surface you are lying upon,

You are supported,

You are safe with me,

You are ready to heal,

And as I guide you through each part of this meditation,

Each section will develop from the last,

And then guide you very gently,

Towards the most blissful sleep,

And now bring your attention into your hands,

As your hands begin to feel so warm,

Repeat in your mind,

And as you do so,

Feel that gentle warmth,

In your fingers,

Your palms,

As your hands rest,

In sweet comfort,

And heavy,

And now your feet,

Say to yourself,

My feet are warm and heavy,

My feet are warm and heavy,

And as you do so,

Feel your feet,

Sinking down,

Perfectly supported,

Perfectly relaxed,

Your whole body now,

Is peaceful,

And now,

Since you're feeling a little more relaxed,

In the theatre of your mind,

See yourself,

In a peaceful,

Lush,

And vibrant garden,

The sun is already high in the sky,

Warming the land,

And the newly emerging plants,

Hedges surround the garden,

And little birds,

Dart and flash,

From one side to the other,

They swoop down to pick up food from the bird table,

And then retreat to the shelter of the leaves and branches,

Blackbirds chase and squabble with each other,

And then a flock of goldfinches,

With bright red,

Black,

And yellow heads,

Fly down to the dried stems of last year,

To pick out the seeds,

But the garden is already showing its promise for this year,

Daffodils are waving majestically in the slight breeze,

The yellow trumpets sounding a call for the coming season,

Little anemone flowers show a range of colors,

Besides the yellow daffodils,

And the hardy cyclamens,

Peep shyly from underneath the box hedges,

With purple petals of a deep and lovely shade,

The first forget-me-not flowers are showing pink blossoms that will soon turn to blue,

Roses are one of the first plants to show new leaves,

And the soft red twigs branch out,

Promising a spray of blooms that will come with the summer sun,

These beds hold a myriad of perennial plants,

All staring from their dormancy,

The iris is thrusting forth its sharp leaves,

Like a forest of green swords,

The poppies have a mound of furry green leaves,

From which the flower stems will soon strike out,

The alliums too will soon throw up their handsome purple and white balls of flower,

And further along the hollyhocks already have their spears thrusting upwards,

Soon to give a column of wonderful blooms,

As you wander through this space,

You realize that this is the garden of life,

A symbolic space,

Where each path and every plant represents different moments and phases of your experience,

The beauty here is entwined with the complexity of growth,

Each flower represents resilience and renewal,

As you continue your walk along the winding path,

Surrounded by a rich variety of plants and flowers,

Every color,

Every scent,

Every soft petal evokes memories of past joys,

In this garden,

As with life,

We have challenges,

And maybe you come to a particular section of the garden that seems a bit overgrown or in shadow,

This part of the garden may symbolize past wounds,

Dormant or unresolved emotions,

See yourself moving towards the overgrown area,

Sense these past difficulties,

You may acknowledge these feelings without judgment,

There is no need to remember specific events,

You may simply connect with the symbolism of the parts that represent the past,

Now pause by a particularly overgrown part of the path,

And I want you to visualize or imagine yourself gently clearing away the weeds,

The overgrowth,

Dead leaves or tangled vines,

You might like to imagine you have a large wooden rake,

Collecting those leaves,

Gently gathering them up,

Clearing away,

And as you do this,

You're also tending to these hurts,

These past versions of you,

Give them the attention they deserve,

Perhaps allowing light to come in,

Give them the love and compassion they need,

With each sweep of your hands,

You can sense a feeling of release,

Clearing away,

As you tend and make peace with these parts of your life,

And allowing light,

You are making space for new growth,

For new fresh and healthy plants to flourish,

For each time you trim back dead leaves,

Or untangle branches,

This is an act of healing,

Clearing space in your heart and mind,

And as you do so,

You can feel the emotional weight of these experiences,

Softening,

Lifting,

Maybe you'd like to imagine pulling out those last weeds,

As you continue to clear and nurture the garden,

Allowing your body to relax,

And your mind to rest,

You are affirming your healing and growth,

Releasing the burdens of the past,

Releasing the hold of those old wounds,

Working towards acceptance and peace with your past,

Each experience has shaped you,

But it does not define you,

You appreciate and embrace your strength and resilience that has brought you to this moment,

You forgive yourself for past mistakes,

You did the best you could at the time with the information you had,

You have learned and grown with kindness,

You are worthy and capable of healing and happiness,

You have the potential to move beyond these challenges,

To grow,

For every day you are more at ease with yourself,

You give yourself permission to find peace,

Every step you take down the garden,

Your heart opens to love and healing,

A deep trust in the journey,

Even when you don't know exactly which way the path will take you,

You know that good things are coming your way,

Because you are positively open to these experiences,

And now you find after tending to the older parts of the garden,

You see that there is a beautiful,

Clear plot of soil,

This plot represents the present and the future,

And you can plant new seeds here,

Just imagine yourself planting the seeds in the soft,

Fertile soil,

A hope or dream you wish to cultivate,

Each seed you plant creates new intentions for how you wish to live in the future,

Nurtured,

Loved and vibrant,

And as if by magic,

You see the seeds sprouting,

Notice the bright green leaves emerging from the soil,

You have so much potential for positive change and healing,

And now you see yourself watering these new plants with love as they grow strong and vibrant,

Tall and beautiful,

And now you can stand back and appreciate the garden in its fullness,

All of the parts of your existence,

From those healed past sections to the newly created,

Newly planted future,

Feel a sense of satisfaction,

Readiness to forgive,

To be at peace and to move forward,

You can carry this healing energy with you as you slowly release any remaining burdens,

And fully embrace peace,

Feeling cleansed and renewed by your efforts in the garden of life,

And now you can step gently into a deeper state of forgiveness and emotional cleansing,

Within the peaceful embrace of the garden,

A little further on you discover a hidden sanctuary,

A secluded space of stillness and reflection,

Where forgiveness flows as naturally as the breeze,

As you step into this tranquil retreat,

Feel a profound sense of peace surrounding you,

Like a warm,

Comforting embrace,

The air is fresh and soothing,

Carrying the gentle scent of flowers and earth,

This is a sacred space designed for release,

Where the past can dissolve like mist in the morning light,

Find a place to settle,

Perhaps a comfortable garden chair nestled beneath the shade of a wise old tree,

Or a gently swaying hammock that cradles you in weightless relaxation,

Whether you choose to sit or lie down,

Allow yourself to sink into stillness,

Letting the weight of old burdens melt away,

There is nothing to force,

Nothing to figure out,

Just a gentle unfolding of release,

As you surrender to this moment,

A soft rain begins to fall,

Warm delicate droplets landing gently around you,

Creating tiny ripples in shallow pools and soaking into the earth,

Each drop carries the power of renewal,

Washing away lingering guilt,

Regrets or self-judgment,

Feel the rain purifying you,

Cleansing your spirit and refreshing your heart,

With each drop that falls,

Imagine the past dissolving into the earth,

Leaving you lighter,

Freer,

The gentle rhythm of the falling rain soothes your mind,

Whispering a message of peace,

The deep spaciousness begins to open in your heart,

Where the weight of old wounds once lived,

Now only serenity remains,

As the rain softens and the sanctuary settles into stillness,

Feel yourself enveloped in deep tranquility,

You are cleansed and ready to rest,

With a heart now light and open,

As you drift into a peaceful and restorative sleep,

As you drift off,

You can take these healing affirmations into your heart,

I release the past and embrace the peace of this moment,

Forgiveness flows through me,

Clearing my heart and mind,

I am free from guilt and self-judgment,

I let go of what no longer serves me,

Creating space for healing,

With every breath,

I welcome peace and serenity,

I forgive myself with kindness and compassion,

The weight of the past dissolves,

Leaving me light and free,

I am worthy of love,

Forgiveness and inner peace,

I surrender all burdens and allow myself to heal,

Peace surrounds me,

Filling every corner of my soul,

The gentle rhythm of life soothes and restores me,

I embrace the quiet wisdom of stillness and reflection,

Every raindrop washes away old pain,

Leaving me refreshed,

I trust the process of release and renewal,

My spirit is cleansed,

Renewed and filled with light,

I am safe,

Supported and deeply at ease,

Forgiveness is a gift I give myself and I accept it fully,

Love and peace are my natural state of being,

As I rest,

I am cradled in comfort,

Healing and tranquility.
